c. S. Whites Explanation Explained.


Mr.. White takes ''W' roundly to task
for saying that Mr.. Camden had fair fol-
lowing in the Ninth Senatorial district.
White, in his statement, shows that w.
Blakemore, one of the candidates for NOM
nation, was for Mr.. Camden. So much
for that. He further shows that the first
business Of the convention WAS to pass
famous anti-mOnOpOliSt resolution. he
further shows from the course OF Mr.. Van
meter aud his followers, that the sharp end
of this resolution was directed against
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, from
which that section of State had for long
years suffered wrong and oppression, for
the want of ''the short haul" provision,
which is the main feature OF the Camden
amendment.
But MIR. Yanmeter was defeated because
he was such kind of anti-monopOlist and
opposed to Mr.. Camden. Very well. But
Mr.. Price, also, under the resolution of
this Convention, Was anti-mOnopOlist.
opposed to mOnOpOlies and Camden. But
Mr.. Price is tine attorney of Mr.. Henry Ii.
Davis, BY far the largest monOpoliSt IN the
State of West Virginia, and he is the
attorney of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road, and he, it is claimed, was nOmi-
mated because of his opposition to Mr..
Camden. And this nomination of Mr..
Prise WAS made at the instance of Mr.
Daily. who was MIR. Henry G
Davis candidate for the posi-
ton of District Attorney in place of Mr..
HEX Mr.. Nanmeter was defeated
because he was an anti-BaltimOre and Ohio
railroad monOpolist, and Mr.. Price was
nominated with the full knowledge that
he was the attorney of the two mOnODOlies,
and because Mr. Daily did not receive the
Of District Attorney. But
Mr. White says that the Camden portion
Of the Senatorial district has been losing
ground for the last six wears. So Mr..
Camden did have q following there. He
adds that the other counties have been in
creasing i'm Democratic strength. Possibly
so; Mr.. White ought 10 know; but will he
please explain the facts, consistently with
the integrity of party action in the one case
and in the other We would like to see

DEMOCRATIC GAINS IN THE POPU-
LAR VOTE.


The official returns sent in from the
twcnty-lour States that held their clec-
tons last fall, show IN encouraging Dem
ocratic gain in the popular vote since Isl.
In that year, in these States, the net Re
publican plurality was 1862 but in
lsS6 the Democratic plurality was Is, lSS.
a net Democratic gain OF 1911 200.
Texas, Tennessee and Missouri, Demo
cratic States, and Kansas, Massachusetts,
Minnesota, New Hampshire, Ohio and
Pennsylvania, Republican States, all
gave heavily increased Demo
cratic vote. Kansas reduced her
Republican majority of 6i,OOO to
81, 1000; Massachusetts, cut down her plu-
rality of , 900 to 5000; Minnesota drop
ped from her plurality of u, 900 to 900;
New Hampshire decreased her plurality OF
5000 to less than son, and Ohio suffered a
loss of ~, 600 in her plurality, only giving
the State to the Republicans by 1900
plurality.
Thus it will he seen that while the
Democracy lost some Congressman, there
were more men voted the Democratic ticket
than in ISL. 1t iSmore than an endorse
ment OF the Democratic Administration.
IfCongresS will only carry out the DEM
ocratic pledge of revising the tariff in q
spirit OF fairness to all interests and ''prr,
venting the surplus better things are yet
in store.

The Letter does the arbitration
committee injustice, and makes an I'M
called for attempt to cause dissatisfaction,
in its editorial on the Printers Arbitra-
ton, ~ yesterday. One of the gentlemen
ON the committee, Mr.. c. II. THOMPSON,
WAS chosen by the printers; one, MIR. T. III.
Logan, by the Register and LateiHgeRccr,
and the third man, Mr.. 4. J. SWEENEY,
by the two appointed. These gentlemen,
after fair and impartial investigation,
arrived ut the conclusion that the morn
ing papers were paying high enough
wages Tor typc-setting compared
with other cities OF like size.
The Ioiks5iqR sent in letter to the
committee, stating that it could not afford
to pay the price asked in the printers
scale, and only did 50 becauNe compelled
by force of circumstances. II the NeIrS-
Letter thinks it is able to pay the higher
price it is at liberty TO continue doing 81.

FLOURNOY says there is danger Of the
disruption of the party. That may be so,
Mr.. FLoURNoY may know this from his

great majority, or from the impraeticable

THE PRESS AND PUBLIC SESTI-

In another column appear quotations
from several papers of the State, ON the
Senatorial question. There are quotations
from the MartinSburg Statesman and
ShepherdStOwn Register, from MeSsrs. LU-
CAS- and CHEw'S section OF the State, that
make it very apparent that these two gen.
tlemen are not representing their cons tit
uents in working against the majority of
their party. There is something from the
FairmOnt IRdcr, that shows that the great
mass of the Democracy of Marion
are greatly surprised and dis
pleased ut Delegate KISSEY's
course. Then there is quotation from
a lengthy editorial in the Greenbrier IN
dcpendeaf one Of the more thoughtful and
conservative papers of the State. The In
dependent, it must be remembered, is pub
lished at the home Of MeSSrs. SYDEN-

Clarksville weekly chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1873-1890, 1887-11-19

The late bishop of London, having
just read that striking anecdote Of
John Wesley cutting out every word
of new discourse that was unintel-
ligible to his servant maid, whom he
called in to assist ih the process, de-
termined to preach country congre-
CATION as simple, a sermon as he
could compose. He chose an ele-
mentary subject, taking as his t4xt,
"The fool hath said in his heart,
there is no Cod" On leaving the
church he said SS the parish clerk,
who had been listening with mute
attention, "Well, John, and what did
you make'Sf the sermon?" "Oh, my
lord, it was very fine-very fine and
grand. I've been talking it over
with Mr. Beard, and we said how
fine il was; but after all we can't
help thinking there is a God." What
wonder after this is there in the
shrewd comment of the old verger oI
st. Mary's, Oxford, who, on being
congratulated by preacher on his
appearance of perennial youth replied
ltsHes, sir, and there are other thing:
to be thankful for; I've heard every
sermon that has been preached from
this pulpit for the last fiity yesfs and
thank God, I'm a Christian stih!'
